Spend the day with Everglades Fishing Experience and get hooked on fishing in Fort Lauderdale! Sean will be your guide, so you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.

These waters are known for Peacock Bass, Largemouth Bass, Bowfin, Tiger Oscars, Cichlid's, Florida Gar and more – with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some. Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself live bait fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Thinking of bringing the family? Kids are absolutely welcome with a parent! Child-sized life vests are available but you are welcome to bring your own. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Your day begins aboard a 2025 18' Nitro Z-18 bass boat that holds up to 2 passengers. It is tournament ready with 4 Lowrance 12' graphs, Power Pole shallow water anchor, remote controlled Minn Kota Ultrex trolling motor with spot lock and a 150hp motor. Your guide will provide top quality Scenko Stix rods paired with Shimano Stradic and Miravel reels, along with live bait, (shiners) and artificial lures if requested.

You will need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the guide. All trips are catch and release.

It's recommended to bring sunglasses and sunblock. There will be cold drinks on offer, but let the guide know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is not allowed.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that day dream into a reality, with Everglades Fishing Experience.

An unforgettable day of fishing

4 Hour Trip (AM) on February 21, 2026

Sean was an absolute blast to fish with! He’s super knowledgeable, keeps everything safe and professional, but also makes the whole day relaxed and fun. He took us to several different spots, and we caught way more fish than we ever expected. It felt like we had action all morning. 

If you’re looking for an exciting, safe, and fish-filled adventure (especially with kids), Sean is your guy. His gear is top-notch, and he’s incredibly attentive and patient. Thanks to him, my son had a day he’ll never forget.

Great fishing trip

3 Hour Trip - Morning Bite on January 12, 2026 • 2 adults

Capt Sean was very responsive to messaging before the trip. We normally do the fishing charter’s in the St. Lawrence River in NY / Canada border. We have always caught fish there. This trip in the Everglades was great. Nonstop bites. We hit a few of Capt Seans spots during a four hour trip and we probably caught 20 fish each. My son and I both highly recommend him. We will definitely be back next year.

Epic Glades Fishing W Capt. Sean

3 Hour Trip - Morning Bite on April 1, 2026 • 2 adults

Great day out in the glades w Captian Sean. we got an early start and had an epic day. Sean’s extensive knowledge of the ecosystem and fishery made the trip honorable mention. We absolutely killed it from the first cast until the last, from alligator gar to big/small mouth and peacock bass…TY @ Capt. Sean for a memorable day 
or my son and I.  Tight lines until our next trip Sean !!!!

Captain Sean took me and my son out today for some fantastic fishing.  He immediately put us on peacock bass (my son’s wish for this trip)  huge Oscar’s and Mayan cichlid.   Trip was so good we chose for extra time on the water to add to our catches.   Highly recommend Sean and his super clean super quick boat.  We will book again!!  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It was great to have y’all onboard.  Extremely nice guys and amazing anglers.  Some times those big fish bites can be a bit slow on artificial but you grinded it out and got some nice ones.   Great job guys.
